The Living Sisters - Harmony Is Real Songs for a Happy Holiday (2014)

Harmony is Real: Songs for a Happy Holiday finds the Los Angeles-based folk-pop supergroup consisting of Eleni Mandell, Becky Stark, Inara George, and Alex Lilly taking on a set of yuletide standards. Recorded in Los Angeles, the album’s 12 songs feature The Living Sisters‘ sterling, four-part harmonies cascading over lilting melodies that celebrate all facets of the holiday from the naughty to the nice. Harmony Is Real consists of the Sisters’ arrangements on holiday classics such as “Jingle Bells,” “Little Drummer Boy,” and “Silver Bells,” plus eight original songs written by the Living Sisters including “Kadoka, South Dakota,” “Christmas in California,” and “Neon Chinese Christmas Eve” on which the Living Sisters put their own distinctive spin on the season.
